On my RGH Falcon, I noticed the Mem temp is the one that sometimes nears the red at about 162 F. Is this too hot or is it okay to continue playing at this tempature? Also, which is better for the system running a game from the Xbox HDD or from a disc?

Should I increase fan speed under settings?

Thanks!

the console auto shuts down if the tempurature of a chip gets to high and shows 2rrod, you are fine to play if it is not getting 2rrod

yeah thats really hot for that little of playing time. I would replace the thermal compound and do a 12v fan mod. you would know if you had a 12v fan mod, cause it is loud as crap.

Damn...sounds like that might be a bit advanced for me. Easy to do that stuff or is soldering involved?

Wait it is a jtag correct? just flash a fan patch to it, and it will increase the fan speed. you can either instal freestyle dash and change it, or add just the fan patch.

Set it high to keep it extra cool, or in between to keep it at a normal xbox temp(around 125 degrees Fahrenheit)

Perfect...just what i needed to know. Thanks a lot man.

Since it was set at 0....was it not even on? Or this is additional speeds added to the fan normal speeds?
